I am a 20+ year executive with a background in Information Technology and its application within the business environment. My career spans transportation and logistics (domestic and international), manufacturing, and education.

I was also heavily involved in the deployment, maintenance and modification of ERP systems built for industry-specific applications (SAP, Innovative IES, Infor XA (Mapics), and one in-house logistics system).

I have a Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.) Major in Computer Information Systems as well as a Master of Science in Accounting & Information Technology.
